====== random() ======

''int **random**(int //min//, int //max//)''

The function ''random()'' returns a whole number between //min// and //max//. It is suitable for random draws with replacement. Examples of its use as part of a random draw can be found in the chapter [[:en:create:randomization|Randomization]].

  * //min//\\ The smallest number allowed 
  * //max//\\ The largest number allowed 

**Note:** Although one could create an experimental randomization via ''random()'', we strongly recommend using a [[:en:create:questions:random]]. For more information about randomization an experimental groups see [[:en:create:randomization]].


===== Return Value =====

A whole number between //min// and //max//

//min// ≤ return value ≤ //max//
